kde have problems with sound

@jdd

notice I still have no “phonon” menu entry, the list is right from the multimedia entry (probably don’t matter).

I did what you asked for: set nvidia at the first line (using “up”). Using the button “test”, no sound
reboot. Test still don’t give sound, but video plays nicely with sound (probably from intel) - always the same login message “intel don’t works”. May be it’s only a time problem (some test too early? the card is slow to answer - it’s an i5 computer, pretty fast)

Try to install gmerlin mixer through yast.

Go to yast–>hardware–>sound–>and test the sound which has sound and choose it.

I will try to install gmerlin, but I wouild like to understand what I did that caused the problem, I repeat this is new :-(. Yast test gives sound for intel and no sound for nvidia.

That said I tried to reinstall (mandatory update) all the kde stuff as found in yast presets, no change.

I also just installed the 11.4 RC1. There, all works like a charm, intel card (no error message), nvidia card (looks like the sound is not exactly the same as intel), so what? I may have killed some obscure part of kde by mistake and don’t know which.

do somebody know where kde store it’s logs? it could be interesting to look at them

thanks

I have nothing like “phonon” in the multimedia screen (nor find it in search). I created a new user, with english langage for the sake of simplicity. It experiment the same kde problem

here the multimedia entry

I notice you have the Backend tab. Click on there. What is the top item in the list in that tab?

only xine

but now I have also gstreamer (and the video sound don’t works anymore!)

So, put gstreamer on top preference.

So, put gstreamer on top preference.

it’s because I did that the sound stopped working.

But I just noticed that on the 11.4RC1 there is the same problem (error messsage), so I become to wonder if there is not a kernel problem (was there not an update recently?) - that said I use 2.6.34 and factory is 2.6.37
